Carney Must Be Honest About His Conflicts Of Interests

Mark Carney is trying to trick Canadians saying he put his assets in a “blind trust”, but the truth is it isn’t blind at all. The only ones who are blind are Canadians because Carney refuses to tell them the truth. Carney know exactly what assets he holds and how his decisions will affect them. He is the most conflicted Prime Minister in Canadian history.
Canadians can’t trust Carney to put Canada’s interests ahead of his own. Just like when he moved his company headquarters from Canada to New York City.
Today, common sense MP Michael Barrett held a press conference in Parliament to speak on how Carney must immediately provide a full disclosure of his financial interests and reveal to the public the conflict of interest plan that he sent to the Ethics Commissioner. By: Carson Bradley

Carney admits to potential conflicts of interest with Brookfield, expects ethics screen to apply.
Asked why he is not disclosing his assets proactively, Carney said that is a question that is for the ethics commissioner
OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney said on Tuesday he expects to recuse himself from potential conflicts of interest related to his past work at Brookfield Asset Management. During a news conference in Iqaluit where he pledged to increase military presence in the Arctic, Carney said that he expects the ethics commissioner to create “screens” which would ensure he avoids conflicts of interest in the course of his prime ministerial duties. “What happens is that there’s a discussion with the ethics commissioner for certain screens around certain issues and that’s a process that is underway,” said Carney. “I very much respect the system, and those screens become public as they’re developed.” Carney struggled at first to understand the question that was put to him in French and to answer in that same language but said that “it’s clear” he expects the conflict of interest screen to apply to him if a government decision “has a major impact for Brookfield.”
